The game is quite simple, the purpose of this game is enable player starting walking towards his/her 5 epic wins. This game requires 5 things you want to do but struggle to get started or make progress. The player starts as ‘brand new’.

I’ll demonstrate. Epic wins I wanted to make progress on in this game round:

  1. Learn to play 5 piano songs really well
  2. Publish a book
  3. Start a company
  4. Make an app
  5. Learn about big data

Quests are smallest meaningful actions you can perform towards with these goals

Learn to play 5 piano songs really well => play 5 minutes of flowkey

Publish a book => write 5 minutes on MakePlayCreate

Start a company => spend 5 minuted journaling ideas

Make knowledge tree=> spend 5 minutes planning

Learn about big data => watch 1 video on datacamp

And the game is simple: do these 5 quests * 5 days. Once 5 quests of each have been completed. The player have levelled up. Now the player is called ‘green’

I’ll let you know what is the next level once I get to be ‘green’ :)

Ciao!
